In the wake of the unexpected and tragic loss of 4 year old Emerson Ball, we are asking for support and love to be poured out to the Ball family.

After a week of worsening illness, Emerson was found to have an unexpected and unknown brain mass and was placed on a ventilator and admitted to the PICU at her local children's hospital. After a number of specialty consults, surgery, scans and testing it was determined that the damage to the brain was too severe to fix.

Just two days after arriving to the ER, Emerson, surrounded by family, passed on from this life.

The family asks for prayers above all else. If you have the means to donate financially, it will help support all medical and end of life costs. The goal is to provide Lacey and Andrew with funds to alleviate medical costs as well as living costs in these next few weeks.

On behalf of the Ball family, thank you for any and all support, whether it through finances or prayers.
